SECTION 4. FIRST-AID MEASURES

First-aid Measures
Inhalation
Remove source of contaminant or move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, trained personnel should administer
emergency oxygen if advised to do so by Poison Centre or doctor. Get medical advice/attention if irritation
develops.
Skin Contact
Immediately rinse with lukewarm, gently flowing water for 15-20 minutes. Take off contaminated clothing, shoes
and leather goods (e.g. watchbands, belts). Seek medical advice/attention. Thoroughly clean clothing, shoes and
leather goods before reuse or dispose of safely.
Eye Contact
Immediately rinse the contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm, gently flowing water for 15-20 minutes, while holding the
eyelid(s) open. Seek medical advice/attention.
Ingestion
Immediately call a Poison Centre or doctor. Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs,
have victim lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration.

SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable Extinguishing Media
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, appropriate foam, water spray or fog.

Special Protective Equipment and Precautions for Fire-fighters
Use water spray to cool containers/tanks.
When fighting chemical fires, emergency responders should wear NIOSH approved self contained breathing apparatus
and appropriate protective clothing.

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment, and Emergency Procedures
Isolate the hazard area. Keep out unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Use the personal protective equipment
recommended in Section 8 of this safety data sheet.
Environmental Precautions
Do not allow into any sewer, on the ground or into any waterway. If the spill is inside a building, prevent product from
entering drains, ventilation systems and confined areas. Prevent product from entering drains, soil, ditches, sewers,
waterways and/or groundwater.
Methods and Materials for Containment and Cleaning Up
Eliminate all ignition sources. Dike spilled product to prevent runoff. Do not use absorbents. Contain spill using
noncombustible material such as vermiculite, earth or sand. Place contaminated vermiculite, earth or sand into suitable,
covered, labelled containers for disposal. Store recovered product in suitable containers for disposal according to local
regulations.
Other Information
Contact EH&S regarding spill as spills of certain products and certain quantities may require reporting to various
authorities.

SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for Safe Handling
Avoid breathing in this product. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke in areas where
product is handled. Employees should wash hands after working with product and before going on breaks outside of
the work area. Avoid generating vapours or mists. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use or empty. Keep away
from heat and open flames. See Section 8 for appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Conditions for Safe Storage
Store in an area that is: cool, dry, well-ventilated. Away from open flames, excessive heat or sources of ignition.
Separate from incompatible materials (see Section 10: Stability and Reactivity). Keep containers tightly closed when
not in use.
